An analysis of five families has revealed a previously unknown genetic immunodeficiency, says an international team led by researchers from Boston Children's Hospital. The condition, linked to ...
The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) halted 27 gene therapy trials Tuesday following indications that a second child is showing signs of leukemia after treatment for X-linked Severe Combined ...
The tally is grim: three high-profile cancer cases, including one death, in French boys who underwent pioneering gene therapy for X-linked severe combined immunodeficiency (X-SCID). Yet Edward ...
Current GT strategies employ viral vectors (eg, murine g-retroviruses or lentiviruses) to introduce genetic material into isolated HSCs. However, gene editing (eg, CRISPR-based GT) is under active ...
